[Man]
The governments have announced the taxpayers will make money on the bailouts.

[Woman]
Should I believe them?

[Man]
Depends. Do you believe the politicians are honest?

[Woman]
No.

[Man]
Do you believe the bankers are fair?

[Woman]
No.

[Man]
Do you believe that the 2 plus 2 equals pink?

[Woman]
No. I definitely do not believe that the 2 plus 2 equals pink.

[Man]
Than you should not believe weâ€™ll make money on the bailouts.

[Woman]
But how could the governments claim such a thing?

[Man]
By conveniently ignoring the backdoor bailouts.

[Woman]
What is a backdoor bailout?

[Man]
A backdoor bailout is like any other bailout, except the governments lie and say it wasnâ€™t a bailout.

[Woman]
But what was the main bailout?

[Man]
The main bailout was the tar-pee program.

[Woman]
What is the tar-pee program?

[Man]
A program where the governments used the taxpayer dollars to buy the shares in the banks.

[Woman]
Why did they buy the shares?

[Man]
Because they said the banks were too big to fail, and if they failed, there would be too many foreclosures and no new mortgages.

[Woman]
So after the governments bought the shares, did the banks stop the foreclosures?

[Man]
No.

[Woman]
Did they give the mortgages?

[Man]
No.

[Woman]
So what did they do with the money?

[Man]
They used it to buy other banks.

[Woman]
But weren’t they already too big to fail?

[Man]
Yes.

[Woman]
So now they are too bigger-er to fail?

[Man]
Exactly.

[Woman]
Which banks are too biggerer to fail?

[Man]
The biggest are the JP Morgan Chase Bear Sterns Washington Mutual, and the Bank of America Countrywide Merill Lynch.

[Woman]
What about the Goldman Sachs. Did they buy another bank?

[Man]
No.

[Woman] Source: LYBIO.net
Why not?

[Man]
Because when you already own the US government, you donâ€™t need to buy any more banks.

[Woman]
After the other banks became too biggerer to fail, did they stop the foreclosures?

[Man]
No

[Woman]
Did they give the mortgages?

[Man]
No

[Woman]
Did they do anything at all?

[Man]
One executive at The Bank of America countrywide Merill Lynch paid the bill on his 70 thousand dollar desk.

[Woman]
My god! Is this a corrupt third world country?

[Man]
Definitely not.

[Woman]
How could you be so sure?

[Man]
Because nobody in a third world country would be stupid enough to spend 70 thousand dollars on a desk.

[Woman]
Is this executive still at The Bank of America Countrywide Merill Lynch?

[Man]
No. He is now the CEO of the C I T.

[Woman]
What is the C I T ?

[Man]
The C I T is a failed lending company.

[Woman]
How could a failed company hire a new CEO?

[Man]
Because they also got billions in the bailouts.

[Woman]
Do these people have no shame?

[Man]
When you constantly get the bailouts, you donâ€™t care about the shame.

[Woman] Source: LYBIO.net
What was the main backdoor bailout?

[Man]
The biggest was the bailout of the AIGs.

[Woman]
Why did they bailout the AIGs?

[Man]
Because the AIGs owed billions to the banks, and if they went under the banks would lose too much money.

[Woman]
And after the bailout, how much did the banks lose?

[Man]
Nothing

[Woman]
How is that possible?

[Man]
Because the governments decided the taxpayers should pay for all the banks mistakes

[Woman]
Which bank did the AIGs owe the most money to?

[Man]
The Goldman Sachs.

[Woman]
So despite its poor decision to do too much business with a failed company, the Goldman Sachs did not lose a penny?

[Man]
Actually, The Goldman Sachs probably profited from the failure of the AIGs.

[Woman]
How could someone profit from the downfall of one of their biggest (clients) business partners?

[Man]
Because while The Goldman Sachs was working with the AIGs, it was also making a secret bet that they would go under.

[Woman]
My God, is this some kind of science fiction movie, like the Star Wars?

[Man]
No.

[Woman]
How do you know?

[Man]
Because the Evil Empire in The Star Wars was fiction. But The Evil Empire that is The Goldman Sachs is very real.

[Woman]
But werenâ€™t the American people outraged by this manipulation of a bailout?

[Man]
At the time, the American people did not know about the structure of this bailout.

[Woman]
How come?

[Man]
Because the governments ordered the AIGs to lie to the people.

[Woman]
Who in the governments gave such an order?

[Man]
The New York Fed.

[Woman]
And who at the time was in charge of the New York Fed?

[Man]
The Timothy Geethner.

[Woman]
And who put the Timothy Geethner in charge?

[Man]
The Timothy Geethner was appointed by the President Bush.

[Woman]
What about the President Obama, and the change. Did the President Obama bring the change to the Timothy Geethner?

[Man]
Yes

[Woman]
So he fired him?

[Man]
No. He promoted him to Treasury Secretary.

[Woman]
That does not sound like the change we can believe in.

[Man]
Definitely not.

[Woman]
Were there any other bailouts?

[Man]
Yes. During the financial crisis, the Ben Bernanke loaned trillions of dollars to companies like the Barclay’s.

[Woman]
What is the Barclay’s?

[Man]
The Barclay’s is a European Bank.

[Woman]
Why would the Ben Bernanke lend money to a European Bank?

[Man]
So they could buy the Lehman after it went bankrupt.

[Woman]
And why did the Lehman go bankrupt?

[Man]
Because the Ben Bernanke refused to lend them any money.

[Woman]
But why would the Fed refuse to lend the American peoples money to an American Bank, but then lend the money to a European Bank?

[Man]
I don’t know, maybe because the Europeans have funny accents.

[Woman]
But me and you also have funny accents. Will the Ben Bernanke lend us money?

[Man]
No

[Woman]
Why not?

[Man]
Because we are not bankers, and to the Ben Bernanke if you are not a banker, then you simply donâ€™t exist.

[Woman]
So after all these bailouts, did the banks stop the foreclosures?

[Man]
No.

[Woman]
Did they give the mortgages?

[Man]
No.

[Woman]
Did they do anything at all?

[Man]
They paid themselves big bonuses.

[Woman]
That does not sound like a prudent use of the American peoples money.

[Man]
When you constantly get the bailouts, you donâ€™t care about the prudence.

[Woman]
Are any of the bailouts going on today?

[Man]
Yes. The Ben Bernanke keeps the short term interest rates at zero.

[Woman]
How is that a bailout?

[Man]
Low rates mean the banks have to pay the American people very little interest in their savings accounts.

[Woman]
That is a very nice gift from the American people to the banks.

[Man]
Yes.

[Woman]
And to show their gratitude. Did the banks stop the foreclosures?

[Man]
No

[Woman]
Did they give the mortgages?

[Man]
No.

[Woman]
Did they do anything at all?

[Man]
Yes. They increased the monthly fees on all bank accounts.

[Woman]
That does not sound like the gratitude. That sounds like the screwing of the American people.

[Man]
Yes.

[Woman]
But isnâ€™t it normally a bad idea to screw your own customers?

[Man]
When you constantly get the bailouts, you donâ€™t care about your customers.

[Woman]
But after all these different bailouts, what did the banks do with the money?

[Man]
They invested a lot of it in the foreign countries.

[Woman]
Why did they invest in the foreign countries?

[Man]
Because they said in America the taxes are too high.

[Woman]
Why are the taxes so high?

[Man]
Because the governments is broke.

[Woman]
And why is the governments broke?

[Man]
Because they spent all their money on the bailouts.

[Woman]
Is this all some kind of a sick joke?

[Man]
Yes, in a way, it is.

[Woman]
What kind of joke is it?

[Man]
Well, do you work for a bank?

[Woman]
No.

[Man]
Did you get any of the bailouts?

[Woman]
No.

[Man]
Do you pay income taxes?

[Woman]
Yes.

Comments

President Obama bailed out the banks.
However, the banks went on to take homes from people in record numbers of foreclosures.
A large number of those homes are still on the market and empty.
Many are showing the affects of nonuse.
The worst thing for a house is to be empty.
All kinds of things can happen to it from vandalism to natural damage.
In time, the property will have less value.
Instead of working with those who are having financial problems due to the economy, the banks just take.
The banks have been bailed out.
They were helped with incredible amounts of money.
Yet they will not help the people.
They would rather have a house sit there and rot away instead of letting people stay in them to avoid being homeless.
Where is Obama when it comes to people with little or no money?
He will help the rich, but not the poor.
Investment firms are buying houses at well below their values for future sales, thus making big profits.
The firms visit a house and look for any and everything that needs fixing or an upgrade.
Even if something is in great shape, they will say it is out of date and needs to be replaced.
In the end, they get the house cheap.
Why is this allowed?
The rich get richer while the poor get, well, you know.
Greed ruined the economy in the first place.
Now it is ruining lives.
The future looks scary right now.
The people are accepting what is going on instead of rising up.
We are being taken.
Our own tax dollars are even being used against us.
It is time to wake up or forever be a slave of a system that is not on your side.
